Chapter 230: A Mountain and a Temple

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, when Zhao Datou came to pay New Year's greetings, Old Man Lin secretly called Zhao Datou to the study and asked: "Do you remember that when we were liberating Pingjin, we met a big monk nearby, and kept staring at my big knife, saying that my knife is too murderous and should not be taken with me, and should be placed under the Buddha's seat?" ”

Zhao Datou, rolled his eyes, and asked rhetorically: "Did we kill a big yellow dog by mistake that time, and the big monk didn't say that it was a dog from their temple, and he complained to Qin Lao, and Qin Lao starved us for two days?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes (Chapter 230 of the Reborn Soul Mind)! Later, he said that the knife was murderous, and he wanted to take it to the Buddha to calm down, and I thought he was trying to mad me with a knife! As if he had found a bosom friend, Mr. Lin began to recall the eventful years.

"Haha, at that time, you were not simple, you were stunned to say that the Buddha didn't kill, so why do you need a knife! It's nice not to give them away! Zhao Datou wanted to laugh when he remembered the interesting things in the past, the two of them had done a lot of things, they belonged to the type of big mistakes that do not make big mistakes and keep making small mistakes, which does not affect the overall situation, so Qin Lao also turned a blind eye.

"It's that big monk, both of us were seriously ill before, doesn't this just confirm that the big monk said before that he met a noble person and came back to life?" Old Man Lin asked seriously, reminding Zhao Datou (Rebirth Soul Heart Wisdom Chapter 230 One Mountain and One Temple).

Zhao Datou touched his bare head and said, "Yes, we didn't care about it at the time, this was really said by the big monk!" ”

"So I feel that the great monk should be a little Taoist, why don't we go to that place one day and ask again?" Old Man Lin suggested, speaking a little reluctantly, for fear of being laughed at by Zhao Datou.

Sure enough, Zhao Datou lived up to expectations and laughed again "haha" and patted Old Man Lin on the shoulder. said: "Brother, I don't believe in ghosts and gods all my life, why do you want to play with these when you are old?" Are you afraid of death? ”

"Afraid of death is not a ** member. I recently feel that this knife is a bit evil, and my granddaughter Xiaoling has a headache when she looks at that knife. That's why I'm more worried, so I came to you to discuss. Because of the great monk's thing. That is, the two of us know, so we talked to you about it. Old Man Lin explained, "I'm not afraid of that thing, but I can't care less about Xiao Ling!" ”

Zhao Datou listened to Old Man Lin's words, squeezed his eyebrows and said, "Is it that your Xiaoling doesn't want to practice your red tassel big knife, so he's lazy?" ”

"No, Xiao Ling will never hide it from me. If she doesn't like it, she'll tell me directly. You didn't see it yesterday, Xiao Ling's face turned pale in pain, that is definitely not pretending! Old Man Lin retorted, not believing that Bai Ling would lie to him.

Zhao Datou couldn't figure it out, kept touching his big head, and said, "I don't believe what you said anyway, but as an old friend, if you don't feel at ease, the two of us will take Xiaoling on a trip." Anyway, it won't take two days to go back and forth! ”

Old Man Lin nodded and said, "That's good, I'll take this knife with me and ask clearly." Otherwise, I will not feel at ease for the rest of my life. ”

"Okay, I'll go to the house and talk to my family, and I'll leave early tomorrow!" Zhao Datou agreed, so he went out to play. Looking at the old friend in front of me, I sighed in my heart, the old friend has no wife and no children, and now he finally recognizes a daughter and granddaughter, naturally the baby is not good. The two of them have a fateful friendship on the battlefield, and since the old friend speaks, they must obey no matter what.

In the evening, Old Man Lin said to Bai Han: "Xiao Ling, I am going to visit an old friend tomorrow, I want to take Xiao Ling with me, and in about two or three days, the affairs of the family will be handed over to you (Chapter 230 of the Reborn Spirit Heart and Wisdom)!" ”

Bai Han has been anxious about Bai Ling's affairs for the past few days, and when he saw his father-in-law say this, he wanted to refuse, but he couldn't find a reason.

"Mom, I want to go out with grandpa, Joel came to Huaxia for the first time, and I also took him around, so you and Dad Xi, rest at home, don't worry about me!" There is a grandfather for everything! "Bai Ling already only knows some information from Old Man Lin, and he also wants to find out what is going on with that big knife! Is it the same thing as the voice in Bai Ling's head?

Bai Han saw that his father-in-law and daughter agreed, and he also knew that he nodded in agreement, and said, "That little spirit, you should be careful all the way and don't be stimulated." Also, you have to take good care of Joel and not neglect your guests. ”

"I see, Mom!" Bai Ling knew that his mother Bai Han was worried, and he was afraid that Bai Ling would lose his temper again and be seen by others and not affected well.

Bai Ling looked at Joel and said with a smile, "Joel, are you willing to go out with me?" Grandpa was going to take us to a very mysterious and fun place. ”

"Where?" Joel asked curiously.

"I won't tell you!" In fact, Bai Ling didn't know, but he just wanted to tease Joel.

Joel didn't speak, and looked at Bai Ling quietly, the look in his eyes made Lin Lao very tired and pouted. Old Man Lin's expression fell in the eyes of Michelle and Owen, and the two looked at each other and smiled, his son was really bold, no wonder it would be annoying.

When Joel returned, he prepared the heavy down jacket and hiking shoes he would wear tomorrow, and looked forward to tomorrow.

After Mr. Lin finished dinner, he looked at the red tassel knife that had accompanied him for decades, looked at it for a long time, took the cotton cloth, wiped it several times, and the light on it was very eye-catching, and finally Mr. Lin put the red tassel knife into the red sandalwood box.

Early the next morning, Bai Ling, Joel, got into the jeep, and Old Man Lin and Zhao Datou sat on the other car, and ran all the way to the mountains of more than 200 kilometers in City B (Chapter 230 of Rebirth Soul Wisdom and Wisdom). It took four hours to get to the bottom of the mountain, but then we had to climb the mountain, which was a test of everyone's physical strength!

"Big head, when the two of us ran halfway up the mountain in one go, I was still one minute faster than you, you said that we would continue to compete today, who do you think will win?" Old Man Lin remembered interesting things from the past.

"Of course I won, I can fall into training over the years, and I will definitely be able to win you!" Zhao Datou shouted.

"That's good, it's better than that!" Old Man Lin naturally did not admit defeat, the two gray-haired old men, like children, awkward, had already taken a step forward to run up the mountain after speaking.

Old Man Lin's guards, Xiao Li, and Zhao Datou's guards, naturally followed, and it was their duty to protect the leaders closely.

"Xiao Ling, you and Joel can walk slowly behind, I'll follow Lin Lao first!" Xiao Li didn't forget to explain to Bai Ling before he ran, and after he finished speaking, he went to chase the two old naughty boys.

The altitude of this mountain, called Ilde, is only more than 1,000 meters, but the terrain is relatively gentle and a little tortuous, so it will take at least two hours to run halfway up the mountain. Bai Ling and Joel knew that if they started running up the mountain with all their might, they might not be able to run to their destination, and they might be tired and unable to move; It's better to walk slowly, so that the time is longer, but you can do enough stamina, at least you can stick to the Yide Temple on the mountain.

Finally, when it was almost dark, Bai Ling and Joel finally arrived at Yide Temple, Xiao Li at the door was already waiting, and when he saw Bai Ling, he greeted him and asked: "Xiao Ling, you have finally come up, the fasting meal that has been prepared in the temple is waiting for you!" ”

Bai Ling now finally understands what it means that Xiao Miao can't tolerate the Big Buddha. This Yide temple is really small, but it is composed of several courtyards, which is very simple. It may be that the monks inside are more diligent, so the cleaning inside and outside is very clean, and there is a lot of land next to the temple, and a lot of vegetables and fruits are planted on it, so it should be self-sufficient.

When I got to the dining room, I saw that there were only three monks inside, one of the oldest monks, with a white beard and no variegation, pushing a long way under his chin, and was greeting Mr. Lin and Mr. Zhao; Another young monk, about twenty years old, of medium stature and good-looking, was serving a meal to everyone; The third is a young monk, about seven or eight years old, chubby, dressed in cotton monk's robes, handing out chopsticks to everyone (Chapter 230 of the Rebirth of the Soul and Wisdom).

When the little monk was assigned to Joel, he was obviously startled, and his mouth read: "Amitabha, good, good!" ”

Bai Ling smiled from ear to ear, seeing that there were no household appliances around, and the hall was still lit with candles. It is estimated that this little monk has never seen a foreigner, and this temple is in the deep mountains, and there are no pilgrims, so at first glance I saw a yellow-haired, blue-eyed, fair-skinned person, so I felt scared.

Joel didn't understand why the little monk was dodging, and he couldn't understand what the little monk was saying, so he asked curiously, "What is he talking about?" Joel spoke German, but the little monk had never heard of it, and he couldn't understand it, so he was even more afraid, and after he shivered and made his chopsticks, he hid behind the master and did not speak. Only occasionally showed a big head and a fat little face, and secretly looked at Joel, whether he had turned into a monster with a blue nose and fangs.

"He thinks you're a monster, but the kid hasn't seen a foreigner, or even left this mountain!" Bai Ling said with a smile, thinking that he had a lot of biscuits and chocolates in his backpack, Bai Ling planned to find the little monk to play with him later, and tease him!

Joel looked at the little chubby dun with a smile, and this glance scared the little monk behind the master. The little monk's movements amused everyone.

"Dedong, come out, he's a man, not a devil!" The old monk said, and then took the little monk behind him to the front, "Hehe, let a few friends laugh!" I picked up this child at the foot of the mountain one winter seven years ago, so I named him Dedong, I have never been down the mountain since I was a child, and I have never seen the world! This is the orphan I picked up when I was traveling, and I guess I was abandoned because of my bad ears. ”

"The master's compassion is admirable!" Old Man Lin said with a smile.

"I can't talk about it, but over the years, they have accompanied me, and the three of us have cultivated here, and our lives are self-sufficient and happy, which is my Buddha's compassion!" The great monk replied with a smile, "After a few decades, I knew that you would come again." (To be continued)
